INTERN

"Shit" I cursed immediately I checked the time on my phone. I completely lost track of time. I jumped out of my sit and rushed out of the cafe running to class.

I got there just in time, the professor walked in ten seconds before me and was arranging his things. Quickly,I signed attendance at the entrance of the hall then made my way to a seat at the rear end of the lecture room.

Hurray to another boring class with professor luthman. Ughhhhh, I hate school. —————————————

3hours later

I have been sitting on the wooden bench for the past 3hours.my nonexistent butt feels numb.

"Dear lord,please make him stop" I murmured quietly not wanting to draw attention to myself. "Won't you answer me?" I asked after a minute

"And that's a wrap for today " the professor said answering my question.

I quickly dumped my books in my tot bag and made a beeline for the door until someone yelled my name "miss Daeves" .

I turned and saw the professor waving at me to come forward. Hmmm,why would the professor want to see me?. How did he even notice me?. How does he even know about my existence not to talk of my name?.

You have school records with your passport on it you dimwit

I made my way towards him slowly. I looked up to him, the shock evident in my face.

" you called for me?" I questioned wearily .

" yes miss Daeves,I have to talk to you about your grades" he replied

"What about my grades MrLuthman" I retorted.

"Every senior year student has been assigned a mentor for their final year in college and fortunately for both of us I was assigned to you" he answered

"Fortunately " I murmured scoffing in my head.

He started searching for something on his table, I guess he found what he was looking for because he smiled at me and held the piece of paper up. "This is the compilation of your grades for the past three years"

"Oh shit"I muttered . The thing is , I have bad grades. I honestly just want to graduate from college and live in peace. I hate studying. The compilation of my grades for the past three years probably meant a lot of failure.

"From the report I have here,you graduating with your colleagues next year is a 50-50"he continued not sparing me a glance .

" And the only way to boost your grades up is if you intern at one of the company in town" he declared .i nodded my head at him slowly indicating that he should continue.

" The Smith's internationals is one of the best companies in town, the best actually. Turns out they are recruiting interns at the moment.I pulled some strings and landed you an interview " he stated

This was too good to be true.I know I didn't get the job yet,It was only an interview. But still,the sane side of me couldn't help but wonder why he was doing this for me . Why he was being so nice to me

"There is probably a reward somewhere waiting for him if he helps you graduate college. He is only looking out for his paycheck, so accept it and stop asking so much

questions"

I quickly snapped out of my thoughts,Mr Luthman was already waving his hands in my face .

" i ummm, spaced out for a while. Sorry about that" I apologized

"Thank you so much for this opportunity Mr Luthman. I really appreciate this" I finally said.

"Don't thank me miss Daeves, I am your mentor. I look out for you"he replied with a big smile on his face

More like you look out for your paycheck. It was at the top of my tongue to say that,but I quickly swallowed it not wanting to sound ungrateful.

He quickly jotted something down on a piece of paper then handed it to me.

"The company's address" he said answering the question I was about to ask.

"Oh,thank you"

"Your interview is tomorrow morning by 8, please don't be late. It was hard for me to get this interview slot" he stated

" of cause, I won't even late Mr Luthman. I will be earlier than a bird" I declared unenthusiastically .

"Okay then, that would be all. Bye miss Daeves. See you in my next lecture" he waved me off stylishly

Without even wasting anymore time, I said my bye and made my way out of the lecture room.
